Shows you where Valve's values are. Make it work and be functional first. Think about making it pretty later. I rather like it.

Eh, as much as I like Valve and Steam, there's still many issues long after the UI revamp, focused on making steam prettier.

Is your argument that as long as you cannot fix everything, then it's shit? Or... not worth praise. Help yourself out here.

The person I was replying to said that valve prioritizes making things work before making them pretty.

I was giving a major example of valve making something broken in terms of functionality but pretty, to replace something that was less pretty but functional.

It is usable, and to me it's fine, but I just think it's not valid praise to give to valve in general.
